When planning a fine dining experience in Canada, what's your typical approach?

I book based on price alone or wherever has availability last-minute I check online reviews and ratings before making a reservation I research the chef's background, sourcing philosophy, and menu evolution patterns I investigate chef training, ingredient sourcing, wine programs, and service philosophy before booking

How do you currently decide between a fine dining restaurant and a culinary tour?

I haven't considered culinary tours—I just dine at restaurants I'm aware they exist but uncertain about the value or what to expect I understand culinary tours offer local connections and education, but I'm selective about which ones I strategically combine fine dining with culinary tours to maximize learning and cultural immersion

What role does seasonality play in your culinary travel planning?

I don't consider seasons—I travel when it suits my schedule I know seasons affect ingredients, but I don't plan around them specifically I try to visit during seasons with good ingredients and fewer crowds I strategically time visits around peak ingredient seasons to maximize value and experience quality

How do you typically approach wine selection during a fine dining experience?

I order whatever is cheapest or skip wine entirely I stick to wines I already know and feel comfortable with I ask the sommelier for recommendations and am open to trying new options I discuss my preferences with the sommelier and trust their expertise to create pairings that enhance the meal
